Apartheid South Africa was banned from the Olympics for 32 years.

The same people who called Nelson Mandela a “terrorist” now say we can’t boycott apartheid Israel.

They were on the wrong side of history then — and they’re on the wrong side of history now.

You don’t have “normal relations” with genocide and apartheid.

Boycott, divestment and sanctions until Palestine is free.

For the first time in two years, Palestinians in Gaza gathered at the centuries-old Sayed al-Hashim mosque in Gaza City to perform Friday prayers.

Linus Kaikai: Security forces saluting the body of Raila Odinga is ironic. The man lying there has had a checkered history and a very difficult relationship with the security services in Kenya. He was not well treated at all by them. A lot of them were prepared in a manner to say this is your enemy; that is the relationship Raila has had with the security forces for a long time. Let this be a reminder to the security forces that as Kenyans, we are equal

[Trita Parsi @tparsi]

The Swedish newspaper @Aftonbladet has translated to English their stunning interview with @GretaThunberg where she reveals the details of how Israel abused her for days - and that the Swedish gov played down the torture to avoid upsetting Israel.

"The flag was placed so that it would touch me. When it fluttered and touched me, they shouted ‘Don’t touch the flag’ and kicked me in the side. After a while, my hands were tied with cable ties, very tightly. A bunch of guards lined up to take selfies with me while I was sitting like that."

The Swedish gov is under immense criticism for their shameful failure to protect their citizen.
